    “There is no place for racism.”


    Coming up, Al Foran impersonates another black celebrity.

    What variety of accents have we heard so far? I only heard Eddie Murphy and had to take a call

    As I have said more than once, it’s not an Eddie Murphy impression so to speak, it’s a Donkey from Shrek impression. Eddie Murphy doesn’t talk like that everyday so to speak.

    Morgan Freeman and Chris Eubank.

    Joe of course, had to introduce them as such, in case we didn’t recognise the impersonation. Always a bad sign (Eddie Large Syndrome).

    Well the host and Brendan are doing Whacker and Auld Dub accents. And they’ve never had any complaints. :rolleyes:

    Eddie used to do a whitey impression as part of his stage show.

    How is that racist?

    With the way things are going, if you can't blackface or dress as an Indian, then it is only a matter of time before impersonating somebody in a minority group will be considered "culturally inappropriate".

    Yes but under #woke rules it’s ok for POC to do anything to white people so to to speak that were the shoe on the other foot so to speak would be deemed racist and dat. Dja follow me?

    Joe managed to cut himself off there somehow. That's impressive.

    That story didn’t deserve to be on National Radio once, yet on RTÉ it gets aired twice, and the participants got rewarded for it on top of that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,530 ✭✭✭PieOhMy


    One of the most disgraceful things that has the potential to happen here is the scam artist who wears mens clothes getting some further reward.

    We’ve already passed that point caller! I’m serious! And I hope you’re joking!

    I'm still shook at joe praising the presentation of some of the self published books and then audibly firing them onto the floor. Its actually gas.

    I have long suspected that Brindin O’Cardle and his family’s flights home at Christmas (Business Class of course - I have had the displeasure of sharing the Business Class cabin with them from Orlando to Dublin), are paid for by RTÉ as part of his remuneration for dis show, along I’m sure with an incredibly heavy fee. On top of that, Mr. O’Cardle gets 2 hours to plug his show, website, tours, DVDs, and various other wares at every opportunity.

    I suspect I might treat myself to a FOI request as a Christmas present to myself so to speak dis year and ask de question “fo reals” as de young peeple say.
